SWD - Vari-Green Options
Vari-Green® Motors Greenheck’s electronically commutated (EC)
Vari-Green® (VG) motor combines motor technology, controllability and energy-efficiency into one single low maintenance unit and is the industry’s first fully controllable motor. When combined with Greenheck’s SWD fans, most of the CFM and static pressure ranges of a belt drive can be attained with the benefits of a direct drive.
Vari-Green Advantages• Initial cost is similar to a
belt drive
• Lower operating cost
• No maintenance, no belts, pulleys or bearings
• Easy RPM adjustment
Features1. Dial on Motor Control - A potentiometer (dial on
motor control) is mounted on the motor for easy speed adjustment for system balance. Simply turn the dial; there are no belts and pulleys to adjust.
2. Control Wire Inputs - the motor accepts a 0-10 VDC signal from Building Automation Systems, Vari-Green Controls or other controls to adjust motor speed.
3. Consolidated Motor with Dial and 0-10 VDC Signal - Refer to greenheck.com, Vari-Green Motor and Controls IOM for specific information.
Analysis is based on operating costs for a period of three years where the fans operate continuously at 1725 rpm, 24/7, with an energy rate of $0.10/kWh. Maintenance on the SQ-120 is estimated at $65/yr.
Note: Example is based on a relative cost. Use and installation variables may produce different results.

Vari-Green Motor BenefitsOperates on AC power that’s converted to DC—providing a more efficient motor operation as compared to an AC operation.
• The motor can attain up to 85% efficiency and reduce energy consumption.
• Watt savings of 20-70% depending on RPM. Note: As motor speed is turned down, efficiency stays high as compared to an AC motor that decreases dramatically.
• Operates cooler than a standard AC motor at lower RPMs. A cooler motor has longer motor life and reduces energy consumption.
• 80% usable RPM turndown vs. 30% on AC single phase direct drive.
• SWD fans with Vari-Green motors can provide most of the CFM and static pressure ranges of a comparable belt drive.
• Maintenance costs are reduced as there are no belts or bearings to replace and no pulleys to adjust.
• Direct drive fans are often preferred where maintenance access is difficult.
• Provides a solution for demand controlled ventilation applications.
Model SWDGreenheck’s backward-inclined utility fans have many advantages; higher operating efficiencies, non-overloading horsepower curves and higher pressure capabilities. You will also receive the following benefits with these fans:• Available in seven sizes (7 through 18) capacities
from 100 to 5,500 cfm (170 to 9,352 m³/hr) and static pressures to 2.5 in. wg (623 Pa). Model SWD is offered exclusively with Vari-Green electronically commutated motors for energy efficiency and ease of control.

SWD - Vari-Green Options
Vari-Green® ControlsTransformer - Provides 24V power from the existing line voltage at the fan to the Vari-Green motor and controls. Dual voltage primary (120/240V) transformer provided with the fan.
Remote Dial - Allows for remote, manual airflow adjustments. Wall plate with dial may be mounted in a standard 2x4 inch electrical junction box.
Two-Speed Control with Integral Transformer - Control allows motor RPM to be set at two independent speeds (high or low). Meets minimum airflow requirements with the ability to bump up to high speed in an emergency or meet maximum airflow requirements, or reset to low for energy conservation. Speeds are selectable via either a dry contact input which utilizes an external switching device to toggle between speeds, or an AC digital input which allows an AC voltage signal to be used to change speeds.
Constant Pressure Control - Indoor - Control Vari-Green motor via static (variable volume) or velocity (constant CFM) pressure on the inlet or outlet side of the fan. Optional, one or two, duct or room probes for use in:
• Multi-family structures - Apartments, condos, hotels; dryers, residential kitchens and bathrooms.
• Institutional facilities - Schools, prisons, multi-story office buildings; bathrooms.
Constant Pressure Control - Outdoor - Control Vari-Green motor via static pressure on the inlet side of the fan. Includes one duct probe and transducer for use in:
• Multi-family structures - Apartments, condos, hotels; residential kitchen, dryer facilities and bathrooms.
• Institutional facilities - Schools, prisons, multi-story.
Air Quality – VOC - Control a Vari-Green motor via changes in volatile organic compounds (VOC’s). VOC’s are gasses that are emitted from humans, building materials, perfumes, foods, and furniture off-gassing. Range is 0-2000 CO2 ppm equivalent.
• Institutional facilities – Schools, court house, hospitals; bathrooms, waiting rooms, cafeteria.
• Commercial buildings – Office space, conference rooms, bathrooms, break room.
Air Quality – Temperature and Humidity - Control Vari-Green motor via changes in temperature, humidity, or both. Range is 15 to 130°F (-10° to 55°C) and 0 to 100% relative humidity.

Demand controlled ventilation offers significant energy savings by exhausting only the necessary amount of air throughout the day.
Demand Controlled Ventilation for Multi-story Buildings
Applications requiring constant pressure or variable volume can utilize SWD fans with Vari-Green motors and Vari-Green controls. Demand controlled ventilation systems reduce the amount of energy used by decreasing the speed of the fan when demand is low. This in turn lessens the amount of conditioned air exhausted and further reduces total operating costs associated with air conditioning and heating in multi-storied buildings such as: hotels, multi-family complexes, institutional facilities, and high rise commercial buildings.

Fan class refers to a construction level designed to handle a given fan outlet velocity and pressure. As the fan performance requirements increase, the fan construction (material gauge, shaft diameter, motor size) must also increase to physically handle the new work load.
Centrifugal products are available in Class 0, I, II, III, or IV, with Class 0 being the lightest construction and Class IV having the heaviest construction and performance capacity.
A typical fan curve is shown with shaded class limits. For specific certified fan data, please consult Greenheck’s Computer Aided Product Selection program, CAPS.
USF-400, CSW
Class of Construction
Fan arrangements 1 and 3 require a structural steel base or structural platform to support the fan and motor. The motor can be located in any of three positions around the fan shaft to ensure proper alignment. Motor positions W and Z tend to make a longer footprint from end to end. Positions X/Y tend to make a shorter but wider footprint.

Construction Options
Alternative MaterialsGreenheck offers centrifugal models SWD and CSW in aluminum or CSW in stainless airstream construction as an alternative to coated steel. Aluminum construction provides advantages for applications with high moisture and various chemicals. Aluminum also reduces the weight of the fan if there are structural concerns. Stainless steel (316L) construction is used for environments subject to continuous high heat up to 1000ºF (538ºC) or severe corrosives. Both aluminum or stainless steel construction can be applied to the entire fan (housing, wheel, inlet cone and drive frame) or the airstream components (housing, wheel and inlet cone) only.
Spark-Resistant ConstructionGreenheck centrifugal fans are available with spark-resistant designs suitable for applications that involve flammable particles, fumes or vapors. Spark resistant construction options adhere to guidelines defined within AMCA Standard 99-0401-86.
Spark AAll parts in contact with the airstream are constructed of nonferrous material (usually aluminum). (CSW)
Spark B
The fan wheel is constructed of a nonferrous material (usually aluminum). A nonferrous (aluminum) rub ring surrounds the fan shaft where it passes through the fan housing. (SWD, USF-300, USF-400, CSW)
Spark C
The inlet cone is constructed of nonferrous material (usually aluminum). A nonferrous (aluminum) rub ring surrounds the fan shaft where it passes through the fan housing. (SWD, USF-300, USF-400, CSW)
PermalockTM HousingsPermalock™ housings use a mechanically fastened seam instead of welding. This airtight and watertight housing construction uses the same structural support as all welded housings. Permalock construction is an excellent value engineering option for applications up to 8.5 inches wg (2.1 kPa).
Models SWD, USF-200, USF-300, USF-400, CSW
Welded HousingsOptional on Class 0, I, II and standard on larger fan sizes, centrifugal fans are manufactured with heavy gauge, welded housing construction. All welded construction is common for industrial applications and is suitable for pressures up to 22 in. wg (5.5 kPa). Alternative housing materials such as aluminum or stainless steel are only available with CSW models.

Premium BearingsBelt drive centrifugal products are manufactured with “Air Handling Quality” self-aligning ball or roller pillow block bearings. All bearings include zerk fittings for relubrication and are selected for a basic rating fatigue life of L10 in excess of 80,000 hours (L50 at 400,000 hrs.) at the maximum RPM for the selected pressure class. USF-400 and CSW models utilize concentric locking collars for smoother operation and providing superior grip force between the bearing collar and fan shaft.
For more critical applications CSW models offer bearings with a minimum L10 life in excess of 200,000 hours (L50 at 1,000,000 hrs.)
L10 life implies 90% reliability or 10% failure rate after the stated hours. L50 life implies 50% reliability or 50% failure rate after the stated hours.(USF-200, USF-300, USF-400, CSW)
Vibration AnalysisAll centrifugal wheels undergo a computerized balance analysis to a Grade of G 6.3. In addition, CSW centrifugal products endure a complete mechanical vibration test after assembly. Our custom data acquisition system uses tri-axial accelerometers to measure the vibration in three planes at the design operating speed. A permanent record for each fan’s performance is kept on file and is available upon request.
The standard “filter-in” vibration levels attained meet the requirements of Fan Application BV-3 as defined in AMCA Standard 204-05 “Balance Quality and Vibration Levels for Fans”. Consult factory if more stringent vibration levels are necessary. (CSW)

Vibration Isolators and Isolation Bases
Greenheck offers a complete package of vibration isolators, mounting rails, isolation bases and inertia bases to simplify field assembly and reduce transmitted vibrations.
Refer to Mounting Bases and Vibration Isolation catalog on www.greenheck.com.
StructuralSteel Base
Neoprene Free Standing
Restrained
InertiaBase
Direct MountNo base required. Isolators are attached directly to equipment. Direct isolation can be used if equipment is unitary and rigid without the use of additional support. Direct isolation is not recommended for equipment having large overhung loads (e.g. motors on Arr. 9 fans). If there is any doubt that equipment can be supported directly on isolators, use rails, bases or consult the factory.(SWD, USF-200, USF-300, USF-400, CSW)
Mounting RailsMounting rails consist of aluminum top and bottom rail construction with equipment mounting bolts which slide within slots for easier installation. Aluminum rails are available with three types of mounting: 1. With neoprene mounting for up to 3/8 inch deflection. 2. With free-standing spring mounts for up to 1 inch static
deflection. 3. With zinc plated hardware and springs incorporating vertical
limit stops providing up to 1 inch static deflection. This type is recommended for outdoor applications requiring rails with springs.
(Rails are shipped loose, not mounted) (SWD, USF-300)
Isolation BasesIsolation bases consist of formed steel members welded into a rigid one piece base. A motor slide base is included where applicable. Bases are required for all Arr. 1 and 3 fans with independently mounted motors. Isolation bases are available without isolators, with rubber mounts or with spring mounts. All formed steel bases with spring mounts incorporate height saving brackets. (CSW)
Inertia BasesInertia bases may be desirable where isolation bases do not provide sufficient mass or where discharge velocities cause greater reaction forces. The additional weight of the concrete reduces the vibration amplitude and reduces reaction forces from fan thrust and start and stop motion. Concrete is by others. (Note: Motor slide base is included on Arr. 1 & 3 fans) (CSW)

Selection data for the model CSW can be found in our CSW Performance Supplement and online at www.greenheck.com.
SelectionThe first consideration in any fan selection is the amount of air to be moved and the resistance to this air movement. Air volume requirements are established through specific codes or accepted industry standards. Once the air volume is known, system resistance can be determined by summing up the losses through the system components. Duct layout, duct size, coil, filters, dampers and fan accessories all affect system resistance. “ASHRAE Guide and Data Books” and manufacturer’s data on individual system components are common sources of information available to the system designer.
In most applications, several fans may meet the required airflow and system resistance conditions. An optimum fan selection requires evaluation of alternative fan types and fan sizes, as they relate to initial cost, operating cost, available space and allowable sound levels. The relative importance of these facts varies with each system.
When deciding on a specific fan size, consider selections that allow for adjustments after installation. Avoid selecting fans that are within 10% of the maximum fan RPM or max motor horsepower capacity. If a selection is within 10% of capacity, upgrade to the next class of construction if possible. Avoid selections near the fan “stall” if there is potential variability in pressure. Operation in stall conditions will result in low fan performance and potential vibration issues. Watch for fan selections with excessive fan RPM’s (above 2700 fan RPM) as these can generate higher sound levels. Select a slower running fan (typically a larger diameter wheel) if possible. Please contact your local Greenheck Representative if you need any assistance in reviewing fan selections.
Effects of Installation on PerformanceFan ratings presented in the performance tables and curves are in accordance with AMCA Standard 210 “Laboratory Methods of Testing Fans for Aerodynamic Performance Rating”. The AMCA test procedure utilizes an open inlet and a straight outlet duct to assure maximum static regain.
Any installation with inlet or discharge configurations that deviate from this standard may result in reduced fan performance. Restricted or unstable flow at the fan inlet can cause pre-rotation of incoming air or uneven loading of the fan wheel yielding large system losses and increased sound levels. Free discharge or turbulent flow in the discharge ductwork will also result in system effect losses.
The examples below show system layouts and inlet and discharge configurations which can affect fan performance.
